Sky Sports has today confirmed details of a major revamp of its channel lineup.

Beginning Tuesday, July 8, Sky Sports 1-5 will be replaced with a series of sport-specific channels, building on the success of the Sky Sports F1 service.

A new channel called Sky Sports Premier League will broadcast 126 live games from the top flight alongside documentaries, highlights and a new nightly debate show.

Sky Sports Football, meanwhile, will be home to games from the EFL, La Liga, SPFL, EFL Cup, MLS, Eredivisie and World Cup qualifiers, while there will also be dedicated Sky Sports Cricket and Sky Sports Golf channels.

Coverage of rugby union, rugby league, tennis, boxing, NFL and other sports will be spread among two new channels, Sky Sports Arena and Sky Sports Action, and a new channel called Sky Sports Main Event will showcase the biggest sporting events from across the individual channels.

Sky has also launched a new pricing structure allowing customers to select which sports channels they receive, potentially reducing their monthly bills. One channel will cost £18, two will cost £22, three will cost £26 or the entire sports package will cost £27.50.
